If there’s something we've learned from the holy grail of television, aka The Office (except from everything about life, work, love and so on!), it's that a little trick and a tiny troll here and there do no harm. Hands up, everyone who remembers the prank on Dwight’s tape recorder!

Real life is no exception. To make our mundane reality a little more adventurous and somewhat hilarious, people come up with the most ingenious little ways to mess with others. “What are some harmless ways to [mess] with people?” someone asked on Ask Reddit, and oh boy, Pandora's box was opened.

Read on below for the best responses, and please, don’t try this at home! Or try at your own risk, which should be not only minimal, but basically nonexistent.

"A Tiny Piece Of Masking Tape Over A Coworker's Mouse Laser": 35 People Share Genius Yet Harmless Ways To Prank Others My grandpa does this thing where he stops in the busy street and starts staring into the sky as if he’s seen something amazing. It doesn’t take long for other people to stop and stare too, once he’s reaches critical mass he quietly slips away chuckling to himself. Edit, he’s in his 90’s now but when he was a teenager he was a bit of a young tearaway and had a pet monkey, which is weird considering this was the UK. Edit 2: holy c**p this blew up overnight. And on my cake day too!

I had an older male relative that did the same. One time he unknowingly pointed and stared right at a kitten stuck on a ledge. Someone had binoculars and commented on his great eyesight. He didn't say it was a prank. Kitten was saved

When I was a kid, if we were eating at a restaurant and did something that caused a loud noise, like dropping your fork onto your plate with a big clatter, we'd all look up at the ceiling in confusion. It was funny how many people would also look up! LOL!

This is great. Saw a one panel cartoon that I had on my fridge for a while. A group of people standing around staring at the sky with some of them pointing. There is another man just standing there looking confused. The caption read "if you think it's a bird or a plane, why are you all staring and pointing?"

    Every other week or so I'd change which side my coworker's drill's belt clip was on, 2 screws and 30 seconds for a maddening payout. Idk if he ever caught on, as he sadly passed away last year.
    I got a huge kick out of doing it though. Might bring that one back as most of us share the same brand of drill. He got a great one on me.
    Every day or two he'd hide a Magic the Gathering card in my toolbox, never the same spot twice. Genuinely made me mad when I'd pick something up only to see another card hidden beneath.
    Eventually I had enough cards to completely cover his locker door inner and outer, he never took them off. Even cut out cards to fit the vents on the locker. I spent a good hour or two on my day off making it. Proud of that one. RIP Chris. Pranks haven't been the same since you left. Your locker still remains covered in Magic cards and nobody has questioned it to this day.

    Occasionally I get Christmas cards sent to my address meant for the previous homeowners, wrong address etc. I take these cards and mail them to my friends and family with their correct names and addresses etc and with their return address. I can imagine them sitting around their table scratching their heads wondering who the hell the O’Reilly family is, in a family picture all dressed up in their Christmas garb sending them a Christmas card. A couple times I than learned that the next year out of courtesy, my relatives would then send the unknown family a Christmas card from them, and than that family is like who the hell are these people.

    I used to do this to a co-worker also, but my team took it one step further and back when a wireless mouse was new, we linked a wireless mouse and keyboard to his computer and periodically throughout the day we'd move his mouse around and, while he was typing, we'd type in things like "we're watching you," etc. He spent the day paranoid, thinking IT was watching him specifically. I don't think we ever confessed it was us.

    If you can see your coworker’s screen from where you sit, plug in a second wireless mouse when they’re not around. Then when they try to use their mouse, don’t do anything wild or they’ll suspect something immediately. When they’re using their mouse, just very, very slowly move the second mouse in very small movements, and it will utterly derail anything they’re trying do. It will drive them mad. 😈

    I do this every so often because it's kind of a game to me to see how long I can keep it up till the person catches on. I repeat the last word the person says in question form. Example: "Hey, me and Jenny are headed to Jim's Pizza Hut." "Jim's Pizza Hut?" "Yeah, you know the one on F street." "F Street?" Over there near the harbor with the big carousel." "Carousel?" "Yeah, you know the one you went with me and Jane." "Jane?" "My girlfriend." "Girlfriend?" "Ok, what the f**k is wrong with you?" Once they call you out and have caught on the game ends. I've carried on a conversation over an hour once doing this. It's really awesome when the person you are doing it to has gone through this a few times with you. My daughter has gotten me a few times herself and she'll laugh on and off for the day at my expense. Her husband has called me an a*s for teaching this to her a few times too.

Recuerda cuando te sientas que no eres amado... el mayor sacrificio se hizo por amor! EL SUICIDIO NUNCA ES LA RESPUESTA! Porque de tal manera amó Dios al mundo, que ha dado a su Hijo unigénito, para que todo aquel que en él cree, no se pierda, mas tenga vida eterna. S. Juan 3:16 RVR1960 La paga del pecado es muerte (infierno) pero Cristo pagó nuestra deuda en la cruz para nuestra salvacion! Debemos volvernos a Dios y apartarnos de nuestros caminos pecaminosos, confesar que Jesús es el Señor y creer con nuestro corazón que fue resucitado de entre los muertos por Dios, y  debemos de ser bautizados en el nombre del Padre, del Hijo y del Espíritu Santo y vivir por Su palabra y mandamientos! Confia que Dios ayudara con el resto! Busca a Dios, antes de que sea muy tarde! A Dios Sea La Gloria!

Remember the ultimate sacrifice was for love! ENDING YOUR LIFE IS NEVER THE ANSWER! For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16 KJV The wages of sin is death (hell) but Jesus paid our debt on the cross, for our salvation! We must turn to God and away from our sinful ways, Confess Jesus is Lord and believe with our hearts that he was risen from the dead by God, and we must be baptized in the name of the Father, the Son and The Holy Spirit and live by His word and Commandments! Trust that God will help with the rest! Seek God today before it's too late! To God Be The Glory!

    My personal favorite is: Sit down on a park bench next to someone. Slide a manila enevlope with a picture of a random person from the net to them and say, "It has to be done by Friday and it has to look like an accident." Then get up and walk away quickly.

    "A Tiny Piece Of Masking Tape Over A Coworker's Mouse Laser": 35 People Share Genius Yet Harmless Ways To Prank Others Edit: For PSA Hide something around their house. My weapon of choice was tiny rubber ducks. Open a drawer? Duck. I need a spoon. Duck. Lovely picture of their wedding with a nice frame? Duck on top. Charging box? Duck. Bubble bath? Duck. Seldom used shoes? Duck. Winter coat pocket they won't use for months? Duck. Its ducking delightful how much mileage you can get out of tiny ducks. PSA: Be extremely cautious in the case of households containing animals and small children. Both like putting little things in their mouths and other orifices so might be best to avoid Ducking these individuals/ensuring things are definitely out of reach.

    I do this to my kids, who are now grown. One of them loves llamas. The other loves piggies. And the oldest is a photographer. So, I collect llama things, piggy things, and camera things… and when I go visit them, I hide these things somewhere in their houses. After I’ve left, I love getting the photos of the items when they find them. Most recently: My youngest daughter was visiting my oldest daughter. I went to visit them both. I hid a little piggy thumb drive I found inside some socks in the youngest one’s suitcase. And I left some llama shaped salt and pepper shakers on the breakfast table for my oldest daughter to discover. :)

    This one is harmless but occasionally can drive someone mad. My mom has a bunch of framed family photos hangin on a wall. One day I was visiting I took them all down and scanned them with a little hand scanner. I photoshoped small changes on them, removed some people from some photos, added a couple of celebrities in the background, etc, print them out and replaced them a few days later. I can't forget her face when she realized it was me and she was not losing it.

    At work, people didn't always remember to log out of their Google accounts on shared computers. I always did a few fun searches before checking them out (nothing horrible just weird). I also left a reminder in the drafts about the importance of logging out.

    We used to do that too. Whenever we found someone logged into Facebook or some other social media on the communal work computers we would change their profile picture to something ridiculous, change some of their bio like their ages/occupations and post a single status about how we will remember to log out next time.

    "A Tiny Piece Of Masking Tape Over A Coworker's Mouse Laser": 35 People Share Genius Yet Harmless Ways To Prank Others When I was a corrections officer we had a guy who worked with us who was kind of a d**k to everyone, and he was computer illiterate. We took a screenshot of his desktop and moved all of his icons off of it so it looked legit but nothing worked. It took him an hour before he finally called IT and they figured it out pretty quickly. He wouldn’t talk to any of us for about a week.

    You need to take this to the next level. Take the screen shot. Load it in paintbrush. Rotate the image 180deg. Set it as the desktop wallpaper. Next go into your screen settings and rotate the display 180deg. THEN hide the icons and toolbar. The mouse controls will be flipped too. Yes I am 100% evil.

    I had a colleague, great guy by the way, who would make an exell sheet for every weeks progress on a project. Not simply updating 1 exell sheet each time, but creating a completely new sheet, marking the second 'week 2' for example, and would fill out this form again to save it seperately. After weeks and months his desktop was cluttered with loads and loads of files making it one big mess. As an april fools prank, I made a print screen of this 'mess' and turned it into his desktop background. So each time he'd move or delete a file, the 'picture' of it would stay. Drove him nuts, took him a full hour to finally call the It guy, which took another hour or so without finding the 'bug' and ended up reinstalling his entire computer system. This was 12 years ago, i still don't have the guts to tell him...

    Yeha - this this to someone but as it was under XP I was able to go a few steps further... The right mouse button did not do anything in XP so ... they were swapped. But the bit I am most proud of - the minimum screensaver time out is 1 minute - but in the config files this is recorded as 60 seconds - bothing stopping a manual entry of 1 second being put in there. Ever used a PC with no working mouse button and a 1 second screen time out :)? ... Next time the mainframe operators want a nice cup of coffee - let them have one.

    We played a prank on someone by flipping the desktop upside down on their screens then turning the monitors upside down so the cables were at the top. This put the desktop back the right way round. It took them a while to work out what was "slightly off" (The screens were attached to arms so people could angle the screens and set the hight to what they needed)

    I worked for the IT help desk at school and we had one coworker nobody could stand. So my friend took a screenshot and set it as his background. Removed the actual icons and locked the computer so when he logged in nothing worked. We were the IT desk so he had nowhere to go for help since the IT coworkers set this up.

    When my son was younger he and I purchased a box of remote controls for garage doors at a yard sale. Then for many months on the weekends we would drive around neighborhoods pressing the buttons to see which garage doors open or closed. Sometimes we would get where someone was just leaving and see the garage door closed and we happen to hit on the right one to make it open and then they would stop close it it start to move again and then we would close it. He and I spent several months getting great laughs out of this and now I think I'm going to continue the tradition with grandsons...

    Someone left a phone message for my sister from Myra Maines and the number was a funeral home. When she called back and asked to speak to Myra Maines, the lady who answered told her there was no one there by that name, my sister read back the number and asked if she was sure because there was an urgent message on her desk to call Myra back. The lady who answered the phone said "You just don't get it do you lady? Myra Maines... my remains... THIS IS A FUNERAL HOME!" My sister was so embarrassed and vowed revenge on all of us who worked with her!

    I was talking with a supervisor and I happened to have like 4 hard boiled eggs in my jacket pocket for lunch. So while talking with stuff, I took out an egg, cracked and shelled it and ate it. The conversation kept going so I did it again but I could see he was growing quizzical. I waited a few more minutes, pulled out another and ate that too. By then I could tell he was like WTF. The conversation was wrapping up so I pulled the last one out and he stopped mid conversation and asked me, “how many f$cking eggs do you have?” I just shrugged, shelled, and then ate, the last egg.

    Also, putting emphasis on suspicious words can help season this one. "Oh, don't worry. There's nothing wrong with *this* bag of chips." Or using air quotes in vaguely threatening ways: Here you go honey, some fresh "pancakes". (Can also work on the word fresh in this example)

    I was at a stop light once, and there was a dark pickup truck across from me, and the driver was waving. I couldn't see their face, just their arm waving because the back window was behind it. I'm frantically trying to remember who do I know that drives a dark pickup truck, and should I just wave? What if they are waving at someone else? The lights going to change! I have to do something! And then a cloud moved in front of the sun and I could see the driver - and the dog next to him wagging its tail.

    I live in a smaller community where we wave at everyone whether you know them or not. It's merely considered common courtesy so this prank would not work so well here.

    Until I got contacts, I used to wave at random people coming down the hall at work - because I didn't want to look like a jerk for ignoring people that I knew. In reality, I couldn't tell who the hell the person was from far away. Sometimes I knew the person, sometimes I just looked like a really friendly weirdo.

    My dad is a Shriner, and marched in parades for years. One was on the eastern side of the state (we lived on the western side, three hours drive away). After the flag, the next parade slots are always local politicians, riding in cars draped with their name and party affiliation. One stuck in Mom's head for some reason. At the town park afterward, Mom saw this particular politician again, and called him from across the park by his first name. He's working the crowd, and comes over. She says how wonderful it is to see him again and all. Poor fellow was totally wracking his brain, trying to figure out where he'd seen her. She acts like he should know, "reminds" him of her name. The poor guy couldn't remember for anything who this woman was that he'd never met. When she came clean, he promised he would never forget her.

    One of my favorite memories with a cousin was the time he was driving & hit a dead end & turned around in a driveway that had people outside. He hollered out "Hey! I haven't seen you since the wedding! We brought the kids! Hope you've got food!" We had no idea who these people were & they just waved back, looking confused. We laughed about it for years. Fast forward 20 years & I gleefully went up to him at his wedding reception & repeated it word for word. He started laughing so hard he had to sit down.

    A lady in my office wouldn’t stop talking about gas lighting and people who were gaslighting. So we told her it was actually called “gaslamping” and she has the term wrong. Took a bit of convincing but she started using that term and telling everyone else they were wrong too. A week later we changed it back to gaslighting.

    Our neighbour has chickens. About once a week or so we would sneak over and put extra eggs in the lay box, so it looked like the chickens had been on a laying spree. So fun chatting with them, trying to work out why sometimes the chickens were super producers and sometimes not. It ended when we put a chocolate egg in there, they worked it out then 😄😄

    Once upon a time Walt Disney had a small pet turtle. He had special food for it and made much of it. His animators replaced it every couple days with a slightly bigger one so it quickly "grew" from a couple inches to more than a foot wide. Walt Disney was thrilled is special food for his turtle worked so well. Secret grins all around. Then the animators reversed the process...

    I grew up on a farm and Dad & Grandpa had a Farmer friend who they would exchange pranks with. One Easter my Grandma took a bunch of colored Easter eggs and put them in the friend's lay boxes, if course, he accused Dad and Grandpa but it was Grandma who got the last laugh.

    Look at their forehead, ear, or chin during the entire conversation. Call in sick to a place you don't work. At the deli, ask for the most human tasting meat they have. Go to the grocery store and ask for Gomber. "You know, it's kind of red, and you put it on mayo sandwiches." Ask if they like your perfume and get them to smell your neck, wrist, ankle, or other body part. Don't actually be wearing any perfume.

    We have a dude in our neighborhood that is a trump supporter. Don't ask why but I have a box of 50 or so blank flags I've been sitting on for several years. When he hangs his dipshit trump flag I sneak over at night take down his flag and replace it with one of my blanks. After a week or two he buys a new trump flag and the process repeats. I've got probably 12 or more of his trump flags. He has just recently started telling people the trump flags he's been buying fade completely out over night. I'm not sure why I've gotten so much satisfaction from him thinking the flags he's been buying are c**p. All I know is I've got a bunch more blanks and plenty of time on my hands.

    I went to a movie with my friends, and apart from a couple 8 rows ahead of us there was nobody else there. A guy walks in halfway through the movie, dressed in all black with black sunglasses and a HUGE keychain (I'm talking 10-11 keys) around his neck, and sits directly behind us. We rushed out after the movie was over because we were a little creeped out but I realized I forgot something and had to run back in... he was still sitting there, hadn't moved a bit. Realized I never heard his keys jingle at all during the movie, so he must have been sitting dead still the whole time. We decided to sit in our car and watch the entrance for a while, and we never saw him leave. I still don't know what to think of the whole thing.

    Some guy on Quora had this genius idea. Grab a highlighter, and randomly highlight one name on a public list (attendance, lunch money, extracurricular classes, whatever). You won't get to see it, but some poor fellow will silently lose their mind trying to figure out why their name is highlighted.

    Shout at friends from far away (like at a concert), but gibberish. When they say, "WHAT???" Slowly, phonetically, repeat the gibberish. See how many times they ask, "WHAT???" Before either just agreeing or if you get bored, just randomly go, "OKAY!" liked you agreed to something. "HEY ROY!" "YEAH?" "HAVE YOU RODDY THE SCAN BAKE ON TRIANGLE??" "WHAT??" "HAVE YOU. ROD-DY. THE. SCAN. BAKE. ON. TRI-HANG-GULL??" "... WHAT??" "THE SCAN? BAKE AT ALL? YES/NO??" "... WHAT?" "OKAY! I WILL, THANKS!!" "..."

    When I was in HS, I carefully watched my buddy open his gym locker for a week so I could memorize his code. The day finally came when I wanted to f**k with him. So I opened his locker, took all his s**t out and left a note that said "go to locker 55". When he got to locker 55 it was another note that said "now go to locker 100". This went on a few times then he finally got to his stuff at the end. It was a good prank and we all had a good laugh about it.

    Hah! I played viola and this would have been a perfect prank. And our HS orchestra conductor had a great sense of humor. Once he lost his baton and rumor has it he conducted with a plunger instead (clean). We were devastated when he moved to another state. Half the orchestra quit. Including me. He taught me how to play during lunch practice. Good thing so many quit, though. The next conductor ended up being a predator and was arrested for victimizing a female student.

    Always give kudos to whoever can pronounce my maiden name or married name. Both trip people up. My maiden name is German and so far the only ones who got it right first time were also Germanic. Doesn't help a quirky ancestor got the bright idea to randomly change the spelling. Took 75 years for us descendants to find out it had been changed (via Ancestry records).

    This doesn't work at ALL. I'm someone who's just never connected with very much music and absolutely no one genre for the little I do like. So I just tell people I don't like music. They look at you as if you just told them you occasionally like to flick cigarette ash into your urethra. Then begins them wanting to know what music you DO like, or gods-for-fuggin-bid...they begin trying to force you to listen to THEIR likes in the certainty they will convert you. No, you'll just make me die inside a little and hate you a little more than that. I've had the whole, "LISTEN I TOLD YOU I'VE NEVER HEARD THAT F*****G SONG" battle/debate/disbelief more times than I can count.

    Hmmm, you could probably sidestep the whole "confrontation" part by mentioning a popular band, and them letting them respond (or if they ask for more details, redirect it by asking THEM what do THEY like). Most people are wanting to compare tastes and styles, and/or glean something more about you than just your name to remember you by. And both of these will lead to a next step of the "trade" (which is what this part of communication is, for most of the time, imo). If they are trying to keep the conversation going, they will start to talk about what THEY like or dont like, and then will then move onto another topic. It is what many of us have been taught to do to make "small talk" and acknowledge the person there in front of you - it could be the sounds of modems talking back and forth, for all some people care, many of us talkative types were simply conditioned to do the "offer thought, listen for answer," activity, as a way to be polite and pass the time.

    This one doubles as an LPT: When you're in a place where you can't walk away (such as a bus stop) and someone approaches you asking for money, smile brightly and say, "Oh, no thank you!" in the same tone of voice you would if a friendly person offered you a piece of cake. It will confuse the person, and they will likely leave you alone. If they ask again, repeat the sentence again. "Oh, no thanks, I'm good!" Smile even more brightly.

    Go out somewhere on a rainy day, like a shop or a restaurant. If it has an umbrella stand, take one of the paper tissues that they provide you and tear it up into little pieces. Sprinkle these into a certain umbrella, and if you are lucky, you may get to see someone go out of the restaurant and open up their umbrella to find a personal, paper snow storm.
